The House at 1 Woodcrest Drive in Wakefield, Massachusetts is a well-preserved late 18th-century Federal-style house. Built c. 1789, the 2+12-story timber-frame house has a typical five-bay front facade with center entry, and two interior chimneys. The doorway is framed by a surround with 34-length sidelight windows and flanking pilasters, topped by a modest entablature. It has two bake ovens, and its interior walls were originally insulated with corn cobs. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989. [1]
